Paper vs Fabric Performance

Suppose one wanted to run a 1.20.1 server with no modifications except for performance optimizations. Which would run faster: a Paper server, or a Fabric server with optimization mods like Lithium, Krypton, Starlight, ServerCore, FerriteCore, C2ME, Very Many Players, and so on?

(Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've searched on the cached subreddit pages and in this Discord and haven't been able to find an answer that applies to 2023.)

pufferfish is a more optimised version of paper so the comparison would be between those two

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:07 PM

i would say pufferfish is gonna be faster

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:07 PM

c2me is unproduction ready

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:07 PM

and isnt fully stable

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:07 PM

starlight has been implemented in paper

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:07 PM

so pufferfish has those patches aswell

Yeah C2ME has a level of risk with it, I haven't had any issues with it so far in my testing though

badoogaOP•7/19/23, 5:08 PM

I guess my follow up question would be, how much faster are we talking?

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:09 PM

u cant put numbers on htis

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

this*

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

tbh

badoogaOP•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

Yeah, I guess I mean more
Will players notice

badoogaOP•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

Like, does Pufferfish blow an optimized Fabric out of the water, or is it something that won't be observed unless you're running tests

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

depends on hardware

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:10 PM

pufferfish would probably be noticably better than fabric

ProGamingDk•7/19/23, 5:11 PM

but if players notice on either is a matter of hardware at a point

badoogaOP•7/19/23, 5:11 PM

I see
Yeah that makes sense

badoogaOP•7/19/23, 5:12 PM

Thank you!
